Taking a step back, the whole idea of finances being mapped to our bodies is fascinating. It makes intuitive sense and has practical implications. It implies that economic control is physical control, mediated by psychology. It also suggests that economic freedom may in part be a state of mind.

Powerful words. Thanks for your personal and revealing share. You've added yet another layer of consideration when it comes to money and how it impacts us. I remember asking a group of teenagers if money can provide happiness. A response by one of them stood out to me: "Money provides happiness only if you share it."

Sharing and gift economies speak to the higher aspects of human nature. This is the type of cashless society I'd like to see. And I'd like to see a culture of alternative thinkers working to build these systems as opposed to the sole focus of holding the rich accountable or trying to reform a rigged financial system.
